  • How can I tell if I need a new roof?

    A new roof may be necessary if your current one is over 20 years old or if you observe indicators such as missing, cracked, or curling shingles, recurrent leaks, sagging areas, or visible light through the attic. Additional warning signs include excessive moss growth or shingle granules accumulating in gutters, signifying shingle deterioration. If you're uncertain, it's advisable to have a professional roofing contractor assess your roof to determine whether repair or replacement is required.

  • How often should I replace my roof?

    The frequency of roof replacement is contingent on the roofing material used and local climate conditions. Typically, asphalt shingles last 20-25 years, wood shingles 20-30 years, metal roofs 40-70 years, and tile or slate roofs can exceed 50 years. Regular maintenance and inspections can extend your roof's lifespan, but if signs of aging or damage are apparent, it may be time to consider replacement.

  • How often should I have my roof inspected?

    It's recommended to have your roof inspected at least annually, preferably in spring or fall, and after significant weather events. These regular inspections help identify minor issues before they escalate into costly problems, ensuring your roof remains in good condition. For older roofs or those in areas prone to severe weather, more frequent inspections may be necessary.

  • How often should I have my gutters cleaned?

    Gutter cleaning should be performed at least twice annually, typically in spring and fall, to prevent blockages, water damage, and roof issues. More frequent cleaning may be necessary if your property has overhanging trees, experiences heavy storms, or is located in an area with abundant foliage. Regular gutter maintenance is crucial for protecting your roof, siding, and foundation from water-related damage.
